Blogaversary Giveaway #4- Cricut Mini from ProvoCraft!

Just when you thought my Blogaversary Giveaways had all been announced, I have one more up my sleeve! This one is from our friends at ProvoCraft– YOU CAN WIN A CRICUT MINI!

Win a Cricut Mini! Contest closes 2/6/13.

You may remember that I reviewed it here and found it remarkably easy to use. Since you don’t need to buy bulky (and costly) cartridges, you can select single images, image collections and yes, even whole digital cartridges without having to store them! Plus the cutting ability for any Cricut machine is fantastic.

So….want to win?? You’ve got some options today! (Hint- click the blue link if your browser does not display it automatically.)

So…what would you do with your Cricut Mini?? (That’s the first question you MUST answer to enter. If you leave random gobbledygook about how you’d love to win, you are disqualified. Read carefully, my sweepstakes addicts!)

I made a sweet Valentine’s Day card!

You’ll be able to have SO. MUCH. FUN with this machine! Good luck, all!

Big thank you to our friends at ProvoCraft for supplying this awesome prize!!!

PS… there are still THREE OTHER GIVEAWAYS open- visit this link to see the rest!

I love it’s portability, being a grandma to a little loves to craft 3 yr old, I could see us having many special moments using cut outs from the Cricut Mini. Added bonuses is the not needing to store the files. I’d be able to pack it and go to where ever for crafting. I love to alter different materials, scrapbook and make cards,so this too would be a nice addition to my craft room.

awesome!! who wouldn’t want to win one:) Thanks for the chance! I would make cards, and paper clouds to hang over my granddaughters travel crib when I start babysitting… and tags… and oh my, so many things:)

This is such an amazing giveaway, WOW!!!! I would love to finish the boy and girl albums I am working on for my two babies. This machine would allow me to expand my imagination and think a little outside the box. I love to try new things and with this machine the possibilities are endless. I also started making cards this year as part of my New Years goal. (I want to scrap a card for every occasion for my 6 kids and hubby). Thanks for this awesome opportunity to win a Cricut!! 🙂

Wow what a machine! I have been started making cards and tags + boxes. I also make jewellery, both mixed media and silver/copper jewellery. I´m poor drawer and Cricut would be a valuable help e.g. to pick up patterns and motifs from lap top.

I want to make labels, stencils, and die cuts for mixed media cards and canvases. I have been really, really needing an electronic cutter! I want to cut vinyl and fabric too. This will give me another reason to shut myself in my craft room and never come out!

I just looked at the ProvoCraft website to get a better idea of what the Mini will do. Now I have so many ideas I’m not sure what I would do first. It would definitely help me use up my paper stash and actually get some cards made!

This would be great! I have the original Cricut, and I do love it, but it gets costly with the cartridges. I would love to be able to just get one or two designs needed for cards and layouts, which I would use the Mini for!

The review you did on the machine was fabulous and I was intrigued but haven’t had the $$ to purchase one :(, so this would be awesome! I am working on improving my card creating skills and more mixed media art and it would be wonderful to have one to create die cuts, stencils etc to use!! What a terrific offer thanks for a chance to win!!

My first project with the mini cricut is to make little treat boxes for St. Patrick’s Day for my 2nd graders. There are some really neat greens and holiday papers available. 2nd graders love novelty, plus they never know what this teacher has in store for them!

I’ve watched plenty of videos demonstrating the Mini, and I am totally impressed. I’m a card maker and I’d cut embellishments and card fronts with the Mini. Also, I understand you can cut phrases like “Happy Birthday!” That would be great. Thanks for the chance to win,

I would use it fr my card making and scrapbooking to cut words, embellishments, and even shapes to make hand made flowers! Not only would I cut papers and card stocks, but I’d use it to cut cloth as well. Your giveaway is awesome and congrats on your continued success!

I’m am a craftaholic who’s just getting her own blog up and running, and this fun little guy would help me create some extra fun projects that could go up on the blog (I’m currently in a card-making phase…) 🙂 Thanks for such a great giveaway!

I would use the Cricut Mini to make scrapbooks of both of my son’s special moments as they grew up so they would have them to cherish.ur I also would use it to help with invitations and decorations for my son’s wedding this fall. It is the first wedding in our family.

I would love to have the Cricut Mini. I don’t use my big Cricut near as much as I could cuz I don’t have room to leave it out. I have to make note cards for a baby shower with duckie’s on them and I have to clean up my OTHER desk so I don’t have to clean up my craft table to cut them.

I’ve used the regular sized Cricut and loved it but I don’t have room for that. This one is my size! I have always made my embellishments by hand cutting them. I have an album I’m making of my son, Jake, who passed about in 2004 of cancer. He was 30 at the time and not a day goes by that I don’t try to do something positive in his memory! It takes time to hand cut items for his ever-growing album. I would use it to help me finish his album!

Who wouldn’t want to win a Cricut mini? This really looks like a piece of equipment every crafter can have fun with! But would love to make Christmas tags for the nursing home tree, instead of hand cutting them! Thanks so much for the chance to win this FAB candy!! Hugs

I would love to use a new Cricut Mini to cut decor items for my home. I have scanned all of my families vintage photos and created digital albums of all of the images for everyone and would now like to use these items to decorate me home. I would use the mini to cut embellishments to enhance my lovely faux heirlooms.

My daughter is getting married this year so I would love to make all of her wedding invitation cards and all of her table favor containers as well as all the decorations. I know this is perfect for all of those items, and she would have fun doing them too.

am being forced to down size and keep the space taken up by crafts to a minimum i would welcome the mini and pass on the older bigger cricut,with regret,but life hands out lemons lets hope for lemonaid i would still be making cards but taking up less room.

I will be able to use the CR finally and there is so much digital fun there, that until now i am only whishing for with a watering mouth bc I don’t own a Cricut mini. I am a stay at home and crafty mom and it definitly will bring my creativity to whole new level. I love caligrafía I could handwritte pretty cards that I could make with the Cricut Mini. Is so nice from you giving us a chance to win. I am sharing this post on fb so my crafty friendscan have a chance to win too. Good Luck to everybody.

What would I do with a cricut mini?!?! I WOULD LOVE IT AND HUG IT AND KISS IT ALL OVER!! NO really, I would. Then I would cut some vinyl to embellish it…then I would kiss it some more and then USE it. =P

I would use the Cricut Mini for making cards for family and friends and I would use it for scrapbooking. I have 3 kids and each gets their own albums. Plus I make scrapbooks for family for big milestones, like 16th birthday, 50th birthday, 50th wedding anniversary. I’m sure the Cricut Mini would be well loved at my house. 🙂 Thanks for the chance to win one. I’ve been dabbling at home decor items too.

I would use it to help start up a ministry I would like to do….Making cards for not just shut ins, but for people that have not been to church for a while, sick, or just going through something in general to let them know we are thinking about them…To make cards for the Missionaries and also to make cards and sell them and take that money and support a Missionary Family or a family in need in our church!!!

If I am lucky enough to win this Cricut Mini, first thing I would make is the Ceramic Vinyl Coasters I saw on Cricut.com, than I’d use it to make stencils for a mural I am planning to paint on my bedroom wall. Thank you for the chance to win one.

I could really use a Cricut Mini to finish my daughter’s Distinguished Young Woman (formerly Junior Miss) scrapbook. There simply aren’t a lot of stickers and other embellishments that “match” the theme of this scrapbook. Imagine how much more beautiful it would be if I could cut embellishments to match the theme!

I’ve seen and loved these for a LONG time. would love to win one! Just think of all the possibilities!! I would love to make a scrapbook for my dad’s 50th coming up, and these would make the perfect embellishments—as “cutesy” or NOT as you want them!

What would I do with it? What wouldn’t I do with it?! I’d start, however with embellishments for my grandbaby-to-be’s baby shower invites, move on to some things I’d need for the business i’m working on starting, eventually getting to my bridal shower invites and decorations….the list goes on forever

As I like to send out cards for all occasions, I would use the cricut mini to make some nice handmade cards. I love the die-cuts that it would make for accents. I am sure that I would also use it for some kids crafts, as well as making all my birthday decor (instead of buying most of it). Thanks for the opportunity!

I have just used my regular old Cricut a few times – just getting used to it; but this looks so much simpler.I make cards and am alwayse looking for die cuts. I’d much rather make them than spending time looking all over I’d also use the letters because you can chang the sizes, in my collages. Thanks Becca

The first thing I would do is learn how to use the Cricut. Then I would get busy designing my own embellishments and stencils. I would definitely use it to personalize greeting cards. I am lucky to have a family that appreciates home made cards. Thank you for the chance to win.

oh the possibilities! i would make lots of basic shapes, just to have on hand and to make so many designs possibles. i would also try to print things in hebrew or create judaica picturs, that would make crafting so much easier and more fun!

My niece has just recently gotten into the arts and craftsy way of life. I knit, she adores paper crafts. I would absolutely love to give this to her for her birthday. She’s 13, so anything she can do that’s wholesome fun is REALLY FANTASTIC in my book.

Plus I get to steal it and make all kinds of silly shapes when she’s not looking. MWA HA HA HA HA HA HA.

I would share this with my daughter. One daughter got a cricut for Christmas, but I have another daughter who would love to have a cricut. She could make fun things with her children and build all of their creativity.

I would do a lot of things with a Cricut Mini! I could make awesome diecuts for my cards. Since it works through the computer I find it really great that I could create my own images. That would open new doors of creative outlets for me. Pretty darn exciting.

Well, the first thing I’d do was read the manual…. My dad thought me well…. then I’d have a whole day set aside, so I could figure all the cool things I could do with it… Then I’d just cancel the rest of the week and have fun with it! Sounds like a plan!

I have never had any kind of cutting machine before. I just can’t justify the cost right now. But I would love to have one. I’ve been getting more and more into paper crafting, especially with vintage supplies. I love making cards, decorating journals, banners and anything else my trusty scissors can handle!

I have always wanted to try making fancy gift tags. My gifts are always so plain and boring, definitely not the talk of the town. For someone who everyone considers pretty crafty, this is embarrassing!! Haha

I would love to be able to give this to my daughters daycare center. They try to do so many different crafts and this would open many options for them… They have an infant, pre-toddler room, toddler room, and pre-k. I would love to be able to help them extend their creativity and allow them to be able to have neat crafting ideas for the children!!!!

this mini cricut has to be easier than my expressions 2 that I can’t figure out and have had for 2 years yes when it comes to instruction books I am a dummie I have a lot of great cardridges to use with it and I did love my expressions one but I wanted to up grade and what a mistake so now make a manual for dummies for the expression 2 I need a simple die cut machine thanks for the give away
